Barnett Waddingham believes all organisations play an important role in supporting and providing technology that helps to bridge the gap for people with disabilities. By offering greater access to technologies tailored to their needs, we help to create an inclusive culture that enables everyone to access the same opportunities.

Web accessibility

Barnett Waddingham is committed to digital accessibility compliance and aims to conform to the requirements of the W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA across desktop, mobile and tablet devices. Our continued efforts to meet and maintain conformance to these standards means this website has been designed with a range of accessibility functions.

We regularly test and optimise our website for accessibility standards through a variety of methods including browser plug-ins and external supplier assessments, and through ongoing support and feedback from our IT accessibility specialists.

Accessible career application process

We recognise that our people are key to our success, and we value access to a wide talent pool, without any boundaries or bias.

 

As a Disability Confident Employer, we want to ensure our recruitment process is accessible for everyone. If you have a disability, learning difficulty, medical condition, or individual need, which you believe may affect your performance during our selection process, we will be happy to make adjustments to our processes to enable you a fair opportunity to showcase your skills and experience.

 

We are able to provide various reasonable adjustments including but not limited to: changes to the interview format and/or accessible interview rooms; accessible car parking; flexibility with the time of the interview; information on the end-to-end process and interview questions at the start of the process; the option to bring someone with you to the interview i.e., BSL interpreter; extra time for testing if applicable; and so on. We will also continue to support you if you are successful with your job application and welcome conversations surrounding any workplace adjustments.

 

We recommend visiting AbilityNet should you need further advice on making your device easier to use if you have a disability. This is an external site with suggestions to make your computer more accessible. Should you require information in a different format, have other accessibility or reasonable adjustment requirements, would like your application to be considered under the Guaranteed Interview Scheme, or if you find any problems not listed on this page, please contact careers@barnett-waddingham.co.uk or call us on 0333 11 11 222.

Accessibility mindset

Aside to our website and career application process, we strive to apply accessibility principles in all we do. We adhere to accessibility standards within the technologies we design, develop and deliver to our clients and our people. We prioritise accessible practices at the events we host, whether these take place in a physical or virtual environment. We also ensure accessible practice in the workplace, actively taking measures to remove any barriers within our offices and systems that could hinder colleagues or visitors with disabilities.
